Here is a short list of names that I see in east commons as of this post:

Names that are violating the Naming Policy are flooding this server!
I would also like to remind people to please be civil. This thread is not a rant and flame. I truly care about the health of the server and feel that these names hinder peoples playing experience.

wow I can't believe gms haven't gone out of their way to accommodate this pressing issue, I mean my god that list of names just calls for action!

In all seriousness there is an infinite possibility of names that can be recognizable or at the very least attributable to some concept and you want gms to rename every one? For every one changed another can be made up. It's too much work and the problem will never be solved. What you propose just isn't realistic and that is why only offensive names get changed..

Immersion is important. It's part of the reason some of us play this game. Don't say "Just shut up and play the game." The only way to experience Everquest with immersive, genre-appropriate names is if everyone's name is genre-appropriate.

If the naming policy were regularly enforced and people knew they would probably be forced to choose a new name by a GM/Guide, players would create fewer names that violate the policy.

Just ban verbs and nouns in the character creation, should be a simple resolution

Dude if you wanted immersion then you can just turn off names. Problem solved... This is a stupid issue to even be concerned over.

Who gives a shit [if black people are being lynched]? If the [County Sherrifs] themselves obviously don't care,why are you all riding up [black panther style] waving the [civil liberties] book around?

You do know the devs [County Sherrifs] made an entire server where people get away with murder [lynching] scott-free right?
